Hand-turned wooden art from Sankt Florian, Upper Austria

Welcome to Austrian Timber Bowl.

My name is Gerold, and I'm a woodturner from Sankt Florian in Upper Austria.

In my small workshop near Linz, I craft wooden bowls, support spindles, balls, and unique one-of-a-kind pieces from regional woods.

Each piece is one-of-a-kind. It bears the marks of the tree’s history and is handcrafted.

It's not just wooden objects that are created.

Connections are formed.

From Tree to One-of-a-Kind Piece

Every piece of wood has its own story.

Local woods are used to create pieces that will often be with you for many years.

To me, craftsmanship means more than just production.

It signifies attention, appreciation, and the connection between the person, the material, and the future owner.

At My Clients' Homes

The best part of my work often doesn't begin until a finished piece sets out on its journey.

My works have found their way to people in Austria, Germany, Spain, Sweden, Finland, Switzerland, and other European countries.

I'm especially pleased when an order leads to a long-term relationship.

Thanks toGerard from AustrianTimber Bowl for crafting a one-of-a-kind piece out of cedar and for his prompt response when the first order arrived broken—he sent me a replacement very quickly. I highly recommend the work created by this artist!!!!

Thank you so much for the wonderful bowl. It's beautifully crafted, and the pear wood is really lovely. It fits perfectly on our dining room table.

Small enough to stay personal

Austrian Timber Bowl is intentionally a small workshop.

From raw wood to the finished surface, every piece is crafted in my workshop near Linz and passes through my hands.

Not in mass production.

Not mass-produced.

No anonymous online shopping.

Rather, it’s about honest craftsmanship, personalized advice, and one-of-a-kind pieces with their own stories.

Because for me, it's not just the finished piece that matters.

Just as important are the people who are enthusiastic about my work.
